Prodigal Son (The Art of Spies) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781735785868)

From altar boy to CIA assassin...

It's tough growing up in the shadow of a famous father who's both a former athletic All-American and a powerful businessman-especially when he's cold, heartless, and abusive.

But Okie has talents that will help him forge his own path and place him at some of the greatest turning points of the Cold War, from West Berlin to the Bay of Pigs. A razor-sharp talent for languages and a world-class sniper's eye. These talents draw the attention of men in the highest echelons of power, men who need weapons to keep the enemy at bay.

Soviet seductresses, Nazi war criminals, and Vatican intrigue make a heady stew, and Okie finds himself torn between his devout Catholic upbringing and the things he must do in the name of God and Country.

But to what lengths will he go? How far is too far? What price is he willing to pay as a soldier in the Cold War or when the halls of power call his name?
